Why wouldn't someone who wants Google and Amazon broken up also want Disney and Comcast broken up? That's a massive strawman.

Very few actually talk about them though and they seem like almost after-thoughts judging by the sheer volume of emphasis and timing. Those who want them as well would actually be honest.

It is basically one statement in the primary from Warren and Sanders, and one article vs the deluge of hearings, articles, and sloganeering comment spam.

Whatever the reason - be it propaganda campaigning, vested interests reflecting their bias, or emergent some memetic reason like fear of change, or finding them transgressive of social hierarchy - there is a vastly different emphasis.
